The new Magnum milestone brings WebGL 2.0 and WebAssembly, VR support, lots of niceties for Windows users, iOS port, new experimental UI library, improved testing capabilities, support for over 80 new asset formats, new examples and much more.
Along with dropped support for NaCl, Magnum now has first-class WebAssembly support. I also took this opportunity to overhaul the outdated Showcase page with WebAssembly builds and there is a bunch more Emscripten-related goodies all over the place!
The Magnum C++11/C++14 and OpenGL graphics engine gained OpenGEX format support, a bunch of new importer plugins, cross-platform extension loader, transform feedback support and new features from OpenGL ES 3.1 and OpenGL 4.5, among other things.
Since the previous October snapshot Magnum gained Visual Studio port, font conversion utility, improved text rendering along with example application, support for OpenGL debug output, documentation updates, better test coverage and many more usability improvements and fixes.
After nearly three years of semi-public hyperactive development, I think it’s the time to release this beast into wild. Say hello to Magnum, modular graphics engine written in C++11 and OpenGL.
